Bonner & Partners, which is yet another publisher subsidiary of Bill Bonner’s Agora empire, has a new teaser pitch out for Jeff Brown’s Exponential Tech Investor — and what caught the eye of Gumshoe readers was the headline, in the ad from Bonner’s Managing Director Amber Lee Mason, that promises huge gains from a “$39 […]

This article was originally published on May 23. It has not been updated or revised, other than to update my disclosure and ownership stakes. We haven’t seen many big new teaser ad pushes from the Motley Fool Stock Advisor lately. They did pretty aggressively promote David Gardner’s latest IPO recommendation over the past month or […]

I’ve spent the past couple weeks going over my updated opinions on all of the past “Idea of the Month” stocks (or at least, those that haven’t already been dropped from coverage over the years), and I promised to put them all in one big list in order of likingness (yes, I know it’s not […]

Today I’m filling in the updated thoughts on all the other stocks that are still in our semi-active universe of “Idea of the Month” picks from past years (ie, we haven’t dropped them for reaching a price target, or being dumb mistakes that have been crushed). These are, as with the rest of the updates […]

I have closed my personal position in Activision Blizzard (ATVI). I would argue that this is still the strongest of the video game publishers, and the valuation is reasonably fair for a large cap stock like this, but the stock performance has been very tepid and earnings growth does not appear to be around the […]

Before I get into the point of today’s Friday File, I want to welcome the newcomers to the Stock Gumshoe Irregulars, and to especially thank those who joined up during our charity membership drive just before Christmas — we managed to raise a total of just over $2,600 for our two charities, and I was […]

The limit order I had sitting on my account to pick up some additional Activision (ATVI) shares triggered today at $10.78 — that happened to be very close to the low of the day, but obviously ATVI is having more than its share of headline risk lately so that may very well not be the […]

Well, it’s the beginning of a new year and time for introspection — so I thought I’d revisit some of the older ideas I’ve profiled for the Idea of the Month, and list all of the Ideas in my order of preference today. So first, the list — if I were buying today from the […]

The Foolies are really ramping up their advertising again, it seems — I haven’t had this many questions about a teaser in quite a while. The ad now is for their flagship Stock Advisor newsletter, and it teases “The Motley Fool’s #1 Stock”. Here’s how they get us started: “While America is captivated by the […]

This past year of writing for the Gumshoe faithful has been a wonderful one for me, but not so much for the returns of the stocks that I singled out for extra attention here for the loyal Stock Gumshoe Irregulars. As I’ve noted before, starting this additional little service for my contributors has served mostly, […]

Louis Navellier started marketing his services late on Tuesday with an email that has the subject line: “Today’s Cut Takes us to the Brink!” In his words, “I have been telling my customers for several weeks now that this is the greatest buying opportunity of our lifetimes. But let me clarify: It’s not as simple as buying any old stock that’s cheap now, it’s about owning a mix of the highest quality stocks. That’s why I have spent the last few weeks creating what I call Action Plan For The Wipeout. Act today and you can put this plan to work for you, beat the market by over 3-to-1 AND be able to look at the morning news without flinching.”

This month the temptation to buy, buy, buy is everywhere — at least, it is for an optimist, like me, who does not think we’re quite on the verge of another Great Depression. Stocks across almost every sector are historically cheap — that doesn’t mean they won’t get cheaper, but it may provide some comfort […]

OK, so my ancestry is mostly Swedish, and I can’t help but think of a smorgasbord when I see the latest email out from Louis Navellier for his Blue Chip Growth newsletter. If you don’t know what a smorgasbord is, it’s basically a big buffet layout of Swedish foods, often served at holidays. And like […]
